Joe Fortes, Coast, Capones, Roxy and more

May 20, 2004

By Catherine Barr

 

The pre-long weekend patio parties got underway early last week with a slew of different events and openings. New beers, new restaurants, new friends and new beginnings were all themes. Check out who was with who, and where, here.

Vancouver's best events and celebrity functions are all archived here. Vancouver pubs, clubs, nightclubs, gala events and fundraisers are included. Thanks for viewing.

Due to server capacity, you will not be able to access or click through to the larger photographs. With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would quickly exceed the amount of memory needed.

If you would like to receive a copy of a photograph, then please send an email and enclose the details of the event, the date, the name, the photo number and the names of the people in the photograph. Also, for security reasons, I prefer not to email copies of pictures to anyone other than the people who are actually in the photo. Thanks.
